Disqualified! Series

There’s something that you can never have because you’ve been disqualified. ...read more

Contributed by Paul Clemente on Feb 16, 2009

Like Abraham, Keturah, Ishmael, Isaac, Rebekah, Esau, and Jacob, each one of us today have good and bad traits; and the first thing we need to do to have effective and productive lives is to know these personal traits, then control them.
